Lokomotiv head coach Josef Zinnbauer at a press conference after the defeat from Ural (2:4) in the match of the 11th round of the WORLD RPL admitted that he was supported by the players.
Zinnbauer also believes that the players of the Moscow team reacted incorrectly to the removal at the beginning of the match against Ural, which influenced the outcome. Already in the 10th minute of the meeting, the defender of the railroad workers Maxim Nenakhov received a direct red card for a rough foul.
“Today is a very bad day for all of us, for the team. Not only the result is unsatisfactory, but also the game. We can say that the removal had an effect, but we could even the score and make it 1:1. Here the question is how the team should react to the removal. Unfortunately she didn’t show it.
– With what score and how many matches do you need to lose in order for the German headquarters to sign the surrender?
We won the last game and everyone was happy. Now there is pressure, but we need to keep working.
You were late for the press conference.
Yes, I want to apologize for being late. But the conversation was more difficult with the team because of this result.
— Do you feel trust from management?
“Unfortunately, I can’t speak for the leadership. As a coach, I can say that the players are behind me. There is no ferment in the team. In the end, we tried to show how we can play. Maybe it was an underestimation. But I warned that the opponent is serious. Plus, I repeat, we reacted incorrectly to the removal. It seemed to me that Nenakhov had simply slipped,” Zinnbauer said.
